Ncdu is a disk usage analyzer with an ncurses interface. It is designed to find space hogs on a remote server where you don't have an entire graphical setup available, but it is a useful tool even on regular desktop systems. Ncdu aims to be fast, simple and easy to use, and should be able to run in any minimal POSIX-like environment with ncurses installed.

Coming from an AIX background, I've mainly used nmon (http://nmon.sourceforge.net/pmwiki.php) for system monitoring - we have it installed on all of our RHEL instances. We've still got a bunch of AIX servers, so it helps having a common monitoring platform. One of the previous admins set up a feed into Grafana, which is a nice performance graphing tool.

ripgrep is a line-oriented search tool that recursively searches your current directory for a regex pattern while respecting your gitignore rules. ripgrep has first class support on Windows, macOS and Linux, with binary downloads available for every release. ripgrep is similar to other popular search tools like The Silver Searcher, ack and grep.

Absolutely phenomenal grep alternative - faster than the alternatives, sane defaults that are nearly always what you want for code search, has a build for Windows, stays fast on UTF-8 files and patterns.

If you code on Linux, ripgrep is grep but better. If you code on Windows, ripgrep is your new best friend because it'll be 1000 times faster than the find-in-files feature of your IDE or text editor of choice.

Another great tool is ftop, which reports what processes have which files open for reading and writing (and what filesystems they're on). Can be enourmously useful when, say, you want to eject a filesystem and cant see what damned program is locking it.
